The Celestial Game

Ps 82:1 «A Psalm of Asaph.» God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
Ps 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

Ever felt like a chess piece in the game of life. Sure you are anointed, wise, bold, strong, and set in position, leading with all that you know how to do and be.

Yet, Jesus is Lord, not us.

Sometimes life gets very interesting, as people move in faith and the anointing, and God responds, and our best laid plans get waylaid, as we lean not on our own understanding, as Holy Spirit moves and directs us to produce harvests, avert disasters, to bring provision and structure to events and ministries that seem to bloom in our midst, sometimes very unexpectantly. Of course there is the work of devils, and men and women that serve demon spirits, that constantly maneuver to oppose and resist our best intentions.

Yet, Jesus is Lord of the Harvest, King of the Universe, and if we let Him, king and guardian of our hearts. While we plan, strategize, and work, there are clearly times that His sovereign Hand comes upon our lives, and redirects our steps.

Pr 16:9 A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.

Let’s Pray:
‘Father, I move, you move, by your grace, in unison. Help me to rest in your moves, even when my natural understanding is limited. In your name I pray, Lord Jesus, Amen’
